Remote Shutter Release Camera Wireless Remote Control with 2 Connecting Cables DC0/DC2, Pixel TW-283 Shutter Release Cable Timer Compatible for Nikon Cameras, 80M+ Remote Distance

I looked for ages for a compatible cable release with remote trigger for my Olympus camera. I know you can use your phone but it is always a bit of a pain. I found that this model TW-283/E3 has the correct connector for the OMD EM1 Mark 2 but it is not included in the product description compatability list. However by comparing other descriptions for other makes of remotes I found that the same cameras were listed. Anyway it works fine, E3 is the important code for Olympus users. The only problem is that when using it as a 'wired remote', i.e. a direct connection, which is an useful option, the wire is very short (not a real problem as that is what a wireless option offers), but the connection is a 'jack plug' type lead which means the 'trigger unit' can slip off the lead when left dangling. This happened to mine and it fell into a lake!! Quickly retrieved and put it in a plastic bag with silica gel sachets and left it for 24 hours. Works fine now. So it is a useful piece of kit which works fine with the OMD and seems to be reliable, even when dropped into water (though not recommended!). It duplicates some of the features available in-camera but I find it much easier than using my phone. Also some remote features do not work when using the phone as a control so this is really useful. Overall I would recommend this.

I bought the Pixel TW-283 E3 for remote triggering to photograph birds on the feeder at the bottom of our garden, a distance of around sixteen metres. It is easy to set up and works perfectly as advertised.This is NOT a criticism of the product, but of myself. Any potential purchaser needs to think how it will be used. What I hadn't taken into account is that once set up near the bird feeder, I couldn't see through the viewfinder of the camera, so in that specific situation I had only the vaguest idea whether a bird was in frame. Generally they weren't! This works well, but purchasers need to think how they will use it.I have also used it as a remote trigger for self portraits and to also avoid camera shake, and it works perfectly.Very happy to recommend and I would certainly buy again.

UPDATE EDIT: - I recently lost the battery cover to the transmitter unit. I found the Pixel customer service email address (in Hong Kong) and emailed. I received a reply within an hour and a couple of hours later, a new battery cover was on its way to me, with me only having to pay postage. Superb and friendly service. HIGHLY recommended.I have read the reviews and some of the negative ones really do make me wonder. The majority seem to have ordered the wrong product for their camera.The item arrived next day and after installing the batteries and setting the receiver on the camera (Nikon D850) it worked perfectly - in every aspect. Having previously used the IR of the D750, not having to have line of site with the camera is a big boon.To buy the official Nikon products would cost you much much more and I don't believe they have the functionality of this product.Buy with confidence (just make sure you order the correct cable connection for your camera).

My wife and I both have Sony A7 cameras, mainly because I like Sony gear and started down the Sony camera path when they brought out the Sony A100 back in the mists of time.As such I bought the Sony remote shutter control that works off the long wandering lead. And, it works perfectly well albeit limited in use to simply shutter release and bulb mode by locking the button in place. It is well made with a proper 'Sony' quality feel to it. But wow, expensive for what it is.So, as my wife and I have started to look at star photography we wanted something that offered more options such as multiple timed shots. And whilst Sony offer this option I would need a small mortgage to buy it, hence I arrived at this bit of kit.First impressions are okay. Nothing fancy but a functional look. The main downside - and the dropped star - is the low rent plastic case. It feels brittle and poor(ish) quality.However, putting this aside the truth is that this works perfectly well. It has all the options that you need, easily set up with the minimal buttons. Single shot, multiple, timed and bulb. Very easy to access and so far in a few weeks no issues at all.The unit can be used directly by plugging in the handset to the camera and not bothering with the receiver - but the cable is quite short so not ideal. When the cable is plugged into the receiver which, conveniently locates into the flash shoe you have far more flexibility. The blurb says up to 80m which, might be over egging it a tad but I've used this at over 25m in my garden.Takes two AAA batteries per unit so four in total. Not included.Overall for a price that is about a third of the equivalent Sony item it's a steal. The only thing letting it down is the lower quality plastic that gives this a cheap feel.

One of the most reassuring features of this release is that the transmitter can be wired directly to the camera in those cases where the batteries in the receiver have failed. This, of course, relies on the batteries in the transmitter having enough power left, but at least you've increased your chances.Other than that, it has all the functionality of the overpriced Canon intervalometer, is way cheaper, and has the ability to be used remotely, which the Canon version does not.

Looked promising but would not work with either a Canon R5 or a 5D mk4. I even tried with an another cable but still no joy. The hand piece would trigger the receiver but the receiver would not fire the camera shutters, regardless of any setting on either the cameras or trigger hand piece. No help in the included instructions nor on the company website. As a result I returned the item
